[Hidden-tech] DOR FAQ on new IT services tax

[Jan Werner]

The Deptartment of Revenue has just released a FAQ "clarifying" the new 
regulations applying MA sales and use tax to computer services and 
software development.

Fascinating!  For example, installing new software on a client's 
computer is taxable, but fixing an existing installation is not.

My advice: buy the extra-large bottle of headache reliever. You'll 
probably need it.
